Orthodontics-

Orthodontic treatment is a way of straightening or moving teeth, to improve the appearance of teeth. Our team consists of talented and certified orthodontic professionals. At Covington Orthodontics, a variety of dental treatments are offered including Invisalign for adults.

Importance of Orthodontic Treatment-

Correcting orthodontic problems is not about improving self-confidence. Lack of treatment of malocclusions can cause difficulty in chewing and speaking, while wearing away enamel on healthy teeth and putting excess stress on your gum tissue and surrounding bone. In addition, crooked or overlapping teeth are difficult to clean, which can result in tooth decay and gum disease.

Early orthodontics-

Orthodontic treatment in young children is known as interceptive orthodontics, and it can begin as early as age 7. Before permanent teeth have come in, it may be possible to help teeth to emerge through the gums into better positions.

Benefits of early orthodontics-

Early intervention takes advantage of the fact that a child's jaw is still growing. Early treatment is useful when the dental arches and jaws are not in the correct position. Functional treatments can fix or improve these problems and enhance the appearance of teeth and boost self esteem.

Adult orthodontics-

Orthodontics is an innovative technique of dentistry that focuses on alignment of the teeth and jaws to improve a person’s smile and oral health. Orthodontists will diagnose, treat and prevent irregularities of the teeth with the use of braces. Adult orthodontic treatment can be necessary to repair:

  • Open bite
  • Cross bite
  • Underbite
  • Overbite

Procedure-

There are a variety of options, i.e. fixed and removable, which help move teeth, retain muscles and affect the growth of the jaws. They work by placing gentle pressure on the teeth as they move in the jawbone.
